It's no secret that we need to find alternative energy sources as the world moves away from fossil fuels. Microprocessors are becoming increasingly common in small devices, and now researchers have found a way to power them using seaweed.

We are on the cusp of creating ultrafast computers that can operate at speeds much faster than anything we have today. How? By using laser bursts to drive the fastest-ever logic gates.

It's 2030 and the way we interact with technology has changed dramatically. Mixed reality devices have become commonplace, and they've changed the way we view the world. With mixed reality, you can now project realistic, interactive 3D objects into your real environment.

Google's DeepMind AI division has caused a stir this week with the revelation of a new artificial intelligence system that is able to complete a wide range of complex tasks. But it was the comments from Dr. Nando de Freitas, research director at DeepMind, that caught the eye of many in the tech world.

The technology uses excited atoms to form a highly sensitive electric field detector, which is predicted to be over 100x more sensitive than traditional receivers. If the trial is successful, it could mean significant improvements for rural areas that have been struggling with low levels of connectivity.

Scientists have made a breakthrough in solar cell technology that could lead to a 1000% increase in the voltage! By arranging three different materials in a periodic lattice, they were able to create crystals of barium titanate, strontium titanate, and calcium titanate.

IBM has announced a new roadmap for quantum computing, which includes plans to deliver 4,000+ qubit systems by 2025. This is the first time that a single computer will be able to use this many qubits.

What happened? Google Maps is getting a whole new look – and it’s going to make exploring your city, landmarks, and restaurants a lot more immersive. The company announced today at its Google I/O 2022 developer conference that it’s introducing an “Immersive View” for Maps.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai on Wednesday announced a prototype for a new type of smart glasses that are capable of real-time language translation. The glasses, still in development, would present live translations to the wearer while someone is speaking.

Facebook's 'Codec Avatars' are getting so realistic, that they're creeping people out. The avatars, which are powered by advanced machine learning techniques, are generated using a specialized capture rig with 171 cameras.

Drones have come a long way in the past few years. They are now able to fly autonomously through thick forests, which has opened up a world of new real-world applications. One such application is aerial mapping for conservation and disaster relief work.
